Hi,

I'm trying to install some modules on localhost and Drupal always asks me FTP access. How can I disable this and just install modules without FTP?

Thanks

From what I know, you should be able to unzip a module, then copy and paste it directly into Drupal's module directory. Then it is simply a matter of enabling them in the Module menu.

Yes, I have also face this problem when I have use Drupal 7.1 with some old module and current new module. If you can not upload from Drupal interface, then you upzip the module and copy it to module folder under site folder. Then enable the module. This is manual installation.

Change the folder permission of drupal 8. 
Ex. sudo chown -R www-data drupal8
